#' Plot text within a plotgardener layout
#' 
#' @usage plotText(
#'     label,
#'     fontcolor = "black",
#'     fontsize = 12,
#'     rot = 0,
#'     check.overlap = FALSE,
#'     x,
#'     y,

#'     params = NULL,
#'     ...
#' )
#'
#' @param label Character or expression of text to be plotted.
#' @param fontcolor A character value specifying text fontcolor.
#' Default value is \code{fontcolor = "black"}.
#' @param fontsize A numeric specifying text fontsize in points.
#' Default value is \code{fontsize = 12}.
#' @param rot A numeric specifying the angle to rotate the text.
#' Default value is \code{rot = 0}.
#' @param check.overlap A logical value to indicate whether to check
#' for and omit overlapping text.
#' Default value is \code{check.overlap = FALSE}.
#' @param x A numeric vector or unit object specifying text x-location.
#' @param y A numeric vector, unit object, or a character vector of
#' values containing a "b" combined with a numeric value
#' specifying text y-locations.
#' The character vector will place text y-locations relative to the
#' bottom of the most recently plotted plot according to the
#' units of the plotgardener page.
#' @param just Justification of text relative to its (x, y) location.
#' If there are two values, the first value specifies horizontal
#' justification and the second value specifies vertical justification.
#' Possible string values are: \code{"left"}, \code{"right"},
#' \code{"centre"}, \code{"center"}, \code{"bottom"}, and \code{"top"}.
#' Default value is \code{just = "center"}.
#' @param default.units A string indicating the default units to use if
#' \code{x} or \code{y} are only given as numerics or numeric vectors.
#' Default value is \code{default.units = "inches"}.
#' @param params An optional \link[plotgardener]{pgParams} object
#' containing relevant function parameters.
#' @param ... Additional grid graphical parameters. See \link[grid]{gpar}.
#'
#' @return Returns a \code{text} object containing relevant
#' placement and \link[grid]{grob} information.
